The Death & Life of: Jane Jacobs

Here is a brief bio of Jane's life and advocacy, they go together.

Born: Scranton, PA (1916)
-----------------------------------
Died: Tornto, Canada (2006)

"What’s important is not that she died but that she lived, and that her life’s work has greatly influenced the way we think. Please remember her by reading her books and implementing her ideas."

Ok, leaving this post as simple as the above statements would be a cop out, but the aforementioned quote rings true, and that is what I am going to digest over the next few summer months, and by doing so learn more about her life.
